About this video
Considering dental veneers to improve your smile? In this video, Dr. Paul Connolly from Bedford Center for Prosthodontics explains everything you need to know about dental veneers, including how they work, what the treatment process looks like, and how long they can last.
Dental veneers are thin ceramic restorations designed to improve the color, size, and shape of your natural teeth. They can be a great option for patients with chipped teeth, worn-down teeth, stubborn discoloration, or certain cosmetic concerns with tooth alignment.
Dr. Connolly walks through the veneer process from start to finish, including:
- Digital Smile Design: How 3D intraoral scanning and RAYFace technology help us design a smile around your natural teeth and facial features.
- Tooth Preparation: Why preserving as much of your natural tooth structure as possible is an important part of treatment.
- Temporary Veneers: How patients can preview their new smile and make adjustments before their final restorations are completed.
- Final Veneers: How custom ceramic veneers are fitted, evaluated, and bonded into place.
- Eating & Longevity: What foods you can enjoy, how to care for your veneers, and why they can last 15 to 20 years with proper care.
